A quarter of all private equity capital deployed in India in the last three years was directed towards buyouts, compared to 6 per cent between 2009 and 2011. For a good reason. At 21 per cent, buyouts delivered the highest median returns in exits by strategy. These are some of the findings of ‘Private Equity in India – Coming of Age’, a report released by McKinsey & Company.

KEY NUMBERS
 
$29 bn: Private equity invested in India between 2015 and 2018
